Live Review: Drahla at SOUP in Manchester 22 September 2022
Live Review: Drahla at SOUP in Manchester 22 September 2022
Words: Andy Hughes It feels like ages since we’ve been to Soup Kitchen in Manchester (so much so the venue is now just called ‘SOUP‘, having dropped the ‘Kitchen‘). But whilst there’s a nifty bit of neon signage on the wall behind the stage, some things never change. No, not the grotty toilets, but the pedal-peering-punters, ever eager to catch a glimpse of the equipment the band will be using.…

carlyraejepsen: New York City! What just happened? I think we just played a sold out show at Radio City Music Hall. I am almost certain but I’m glad these pictures exist incase I don’t believe myself later.

Bigger Than Me, live acoustic performance on Sirius XM 9.16.22 (posted 10.2.22)
The thing I love about this performance is how natural and easy Louis sounds, how relaxed and in command. This was by far the best acoustic performance of BTM so far, better than GMA and much better than Elvis Duran.
Just like Louis’ performances of We Made It and Too Young at Sirius XM back in 2019, Bigger Than Me is done with acoustic instruments. The setting is coffeehouse-like but with very expensive studio equipment 😄: good mics, speakers, & acoustic instruments. The accompaniment is barebones. There’s little vocal harmony and almost no backing track (Isaac’s voice doubles Louis’ in the chorus).
This means that there is nowhere for Louis’ voice to hide. As in chamber music, we hear everything: every crack, every pitch correction, every strain in the throat. So Louis’ performance, like a dive off the high board, has to be perfectly executed yet effortlessly easy— and Louis does it. This performance was a tour de force.
One difference with the 2019 performance is that Louis knows this band inside and out, and they know him. After dozens of bathroom warm up exercises, they know how they sound together. They communicate by listening to each other, they can anticipate. There’s a confidence in the air that each man will do what he is supposed to do, that they can adapt to any circumstance. Louis’ implicit trust in his band is evident in his closing his eyes for the entire performance, concentrating only on what he hears. He takes out the left in-ear for the choruses just to hear the balance of the instruments and the accuracy of his belted melody. He’s straight on.
The contrast between Louis singing solo in the second verse (“So come on call me liar/ yeah you’re so quick to judge”) with his smoky emo voice, to the warmth of the male vocal harmony (singing inverted harmony above, “All those voices, all those choices/ I don’t hear them anymore”) makes me want to scream, “I love you, boys!” They simply sound sublime in a loose, honeyed, ambling way. Louis found himself some really good musicians and great people.
Listen to Louis sing the big soaring chorus and hear how strong his central abdominal muscles are. He projects the sound without any throat strain (and takes out his in-ears to listen to himself). Louis isn’t pushing the sound out from the vocal cords, but powering it from a controlled diaphragm and strong abs. His voice sounds powerful without screaming. The vocal cords are vibrating symmetrically and fluidly. Moreover, Louis and the boys have to obtain a beautiful, rounded vocal quality without really using any vibrato (vocal cord vibrations around a frequency)— which is very hard. He is doing theater singing, rock opera singing: a belted voice without too much vibrato, without mic tricks, without synth, without reverb. The tone has to come from shaping the mouth and throat alone, and it’s projected toward the mic.
Most fun of all! We can tell that this is 100% live singing, not lip synching. Smoking and drinking notwithstanding, Louis has been able to keep his high tenor tessatura, and the pure, bell-like tone of his younger voice has taken on a smokier, older, raspier and more complex timbre. What a treat it is when Louis is at his best.

5SOS Royal Albert Hall 'The Feeling of Falling Upwards' Fan Q&A
Luke and Ash (Lashton notes) during the Royal Albert Hall Fan Q & A Pre-show (Includes video)
- Luke is mostly focused on, staring at Ash, right from the very start and A LOT throughout (and not just staring, but it’s the way he’s staring at him a lot of the time).
- Laughing a lot at each others jokes, though that’s nothing new for them. Luke thinks Ash is the funniest person on the fucking planet (so adorable).
- A lot of the time there’s this tension between them, I don’t know how to class it (maybe its sexual but idk), but it’s easy to see if you focus on just them.
- Luke and Ash are wearing their matching onyx rings. Luke black onyx, Ash new blue sapphire ring which matches style of Ash’s matching black onyx one. (Blue sapphire = 5 year anniversary from when they lived together in 2017)
- Luke wearing his rainbow shirt. He started wearing it in Ireland on TMH tour, but he has worn it many times ever since. Meaning it wasn’t just for that occasion. It meant something.
- Luke, as Ash is intro’ing the show, remarks about Ash having his “soft voice on”, then (what seems like to appease to Luke’s comment) keeps talking in that same soft voice, then after a couple sentences Ash clears his throat to bring himself back to the matter at hand of intro’ing the show. (10:37)
- Luke brings up yet again about the band being like a marriage. (There’s interviews that the guys say that the band comes first even before women. This sentiment has been brought up for years and years now. There’s a specific interview where Luke and Ash say they prioritize 1. Band, 2. Family 3. The gfs, Luke is quick to say band always comes first when you’re in a relationship. Ash even talks about celebrating his sisters birthday instead of the “lady he sees” when they happened at the same time. There’s something about how he says “I see this lady” like he could've just as well talking about his hairdresser or something LOL, there’s a Zach Sang one where Luke says the home life suffers a bit)
- (4:40) Luke holds himself back from making a joke, apparently not suitable for the livestream, about being open in the studio, Ash immediately starts to laugh.
- (6:30) Ash reads a question about what should be a first dance wedding song. Luke immediately interrupts before Ash can answer by saying “ bad omens”, then Ash in a soft way says “dude get out of my way here” and they proceed to giggle. Then Luke says it’s “something we have to work on later”. So, think back to Luke’s comment about marriage just moments before), Ash “this is my headspace”. (7:10) Then Ash gives the answer of “Older” with a stutter, then Michael laughs as it feels a bit awkward, so then Ash quickly moves on to next question, throwing to VT.
- Michael says the message they want to get across for this album is “the relationship between the four of us, and the feeling of falling upwards”. The album is about them/5SOS. (My note: "Complete Mess" originated as a romantic song, but then the mv showed the dynamic between each of them).
- (13:00) Fan question about listening to songs for the first time. Luke says “the first time you listen back, you dim the lights, or maybe you’re in Ashton’s convertible, thats a nice feeling too” *Ash goes quiet and looks down to the floor* Luke continues on, “If we’re all together we dim the lights and it feels triumphant.” This insinuates that Luke and Ash listen to songs together, just the two of them for the first time in Ash’s convertible. It’s a separate thing than with all the band together.
(14:00) Calum remarks about believing everything that he’s told. Ash’s sarcastic remark of “that’s the spirit” with a head shake. (This insinuates there could be narratives being told to him. Or, he's just plain mocking how the general public and the fans believes things that they're told, without question.)
- Answering question about being “the masters of friendship”… Michael teases like a bff would that Luke is still learning to.
- (15:37) Fan question about how the band is so good at friendship and calls them “masters of friendship”. Calum says “relationship or friendship” at the beginning of his answer, when the question they were asked was about friendships.
- Luke saying towards Ash “just pictured you walking up to you” after Ash answers the question of what he would tell his younger self. The guys would take the blue line, then the red line which brought them to Hyde Park (across the street from RAH). On the album there’s a song called “Red Line” which is the train route they would take, while living in London, to go to songwriting sessions. Also, this reminds me about the train they all ride in the “Old Me” music video.
- (23:00) Luke’s favorite lyric answer from the album “I like the ashtray one in Take My Hand, I like the cocaine colored wedding dress in Older” then looks over at Ash. (The lyric in “Old Me” that has the double meaning of Ashes/Ash is, the 5sos twitter account RT’d fanart which made the same connection, by making Ash’s face onto an ashtray). Ash’s answer to fave line is “mine is, I’m still making sense of having nothing left to save… ouch”. Calum’s line as he’s looking at Ash like Ash probably wrote it “beautiful moment in time, it comes and goes in waves, and when I open my eyes, I hope I see your face”, during that line Ash does a surfing type motion. There’s a history of Luke and Ash learning to surf together and posting their surfing dates and Luke quoting Ash to his post when Ash doesn’t go with him on a surfing trip “looks like he can surf but he cannot.” That’s what popped into my mind.
- Fan Question: “What has been your biggest challenge as a band. Have you been able to overcome that challenge? If so, how?”
Ash answer is first ribbing on Calum’s bass playing then switching to complimenting his playing, like a bandmate bff does. “Biggest challenge for me is, as life moves on and gets more complicated, it gets harder to see what we naturally were at the beginning. *looks over at Luke* as we get further and further away so the challenge is to re-meet our childlike selves that involve ourselves with 5 seconds of summer and reattach to that beauty and simplicity. Do that all the time” Luke “that’s a great answer man”.
- Luke “we’re gonna throw to VT, I gotcha” Ash “gotcha”
- Fan question: “If you could chose one really memorable and defining moment over the last 10 years, that has really struck you artistically or personally, what would it be?”
Michael “My answer would probably be our first trip writing this, the second trip was great but the first was really great. That stands out to me a lot” *Luke nodding*. “An amazing time just making the 10 year anniversary thing, was amazing. Everything leading up to this show would be memorable to me. And pretty awesome.”
Luke “so you're saying recent stuff”
Michael “yeah, yeah, I think I’m more of a recent brain.”
Ash “I’m with you. It definitely seems like things are getting better all the time. *looks at Luke* its amazing”
“Luke and Ash deep in staring at each other*
Luke to Ash “Thats what we said in Carry On”
Ash’s very soft voice with a meaningful smile to Luke while reassuring “yeah… yeah”. 🥰
- At the end when they are figuring out where to throw to (aka what's next).
Ash “I think we throw to us on stage”
Luke “That’s a great throw” (pick someone supportive)
(I'm including this just for fun lol )
Ash “And if youre lucky, you might see Calum’s pajamas”
Ash doing a throwback to the earlier silly conversation.
